Nobody threw a map in your face. I'd be happy if I asked for directions
and someone would give me a map and point out where I am and which way I
have to go. That's much better than telling me half an hour of "go left,
then right...". And I can even call him on the cell phone and ask him
"Umm, what does this blue line on your map mean?" if I don't understand
it. Having a copy of the map with me, I could also ask other people
precise questions like "see, there's a place on the map, but I can't
find it, where is this?".
 
Think about it...
